Full Protocol Engineer (Rust)

I bridge the gap between low level crypto theory and production-grade implementation. I specialize in designing and launching entire blockchain networks from the genesis block up, handling everything from P2P network topologies to state machine determinism. I handle core, networking, backend, UI/UX, architecture blueprinting, and economic theory behind my brainchildren.

Currently bootstrapping the Vess Network, I’ve spent my time solving some of the hardest problems in Web3 scalability: engineering an instant, stateless Bitcoin Layer 2 protocol utilizing custom-built post quantum P2P routing and trustless BTC timelock commitments. I thrive on solving abstract, highly technical bottlenecks where standard industry playbooks don't exist. If it requires squeezing performance out of threads, minimizing trust assumptions, or engineering state-of-the-art security models, I build it. I solve any problems. That is my strong suit.
